Known as the Green Gold Mine of the country, Kenya’s avocado is slowly emerging as a key contributor to economic growth.

Last year, it accounted up to 17 percent of total horticultural exports. This has made Kenya to be ranked as one of the top-producing avocado countries in the world and is now competing with countries like the United States of America, Mexico, and Colombia.
